Rumored to be some kind of cross between a person and a giant crocodile. Most (adult) commoners of the Old Empires dismiss the werecrocodile as a bogeyman featured in tales told by adventurers to thrill children, and most other lands have never even heard of them.

The Xaeyruudh Campaign

Some adventurers, unlike commoners, know better.

In the Xaeyruudh campaign, werecrocodiles are generally followers of Sebek, and may be his creation. They have been (mostly) driven out of Mulhorand —where they once infested the fortress of Sekras— but they are found in small numbers throughout the rest of the Old Empires and it’s suspected that they’ve spread to Veldorn and the southern coast. They might be found anywhere that crocodiles can thrive.

They are quietly rebuilding a ruined city, hidden in the Adder River delta. Their lord, Opus Vitrius, is the mightiest hero the werecrocodiles have known thus far, and he leads them in venerating an interesting alternate deity… Apophis, another Mulhorandi God-King (or something) who is gaining popularity (as opposed to Sebek, who is losing it) across the Old Empires. The Chessentan armies tend to avoid the dangerous delta, so the werecrocodiles’ project is going undetected.
